Who the fuck are we to criticize West Ham for playing negative football? We won a Champions League by doing it for fuck sake. On another day it could have been 4 or 5 nil. Credit to West Ham, they defended like lions the whole game.

Just wasn't meant to be. Ivanovic is fucking useless.

Remember how we won the Champions League? Credit to West Ham, Fantastic defensive display by them.

One of those nights. Ivanovic is fucking useless aswell.

Poor attempt at a troll mate. 2/10

He hasn't even trained with the club yet.

Really, REALLY starting to think we're gonna win the league.

That tweet speaks volumes.

My god does ITV commentators are doing my head in. Good first half, Hazard and Oscar playing well, Oscar's free kick was beautiful. Matic doing well. Pressing well. Want to see more of Schurrle in the second half.

Thought Ba would start, good team though. Looking forward to seeing Matic, expect to see a good game from Schurrle

Loved this guy. Really loved him. So sad to see him go, What a servant to the club Essien has been. His goal against Barca, Wow.

If he keeps banging them in like this a Premiership team will want to take him next season. Then we'll see what he's made of.

Picture of him at United really really hit me.

Raul and RVP are quite tall though, compared to Juan. A problem with Mata was that he is too easy pushed off the ball. Mata signing is painting over United's cracks. You need 2 or 3 new midfielders and, In my opinion, a whole new back 4.

The Chelsea facebook page is like the middle east. The cunt's could be talking about the weather in Israel at the minute and no one would know.

What are you talking about? Jose said himself he asked Mata did he want to leave, Juan said he did, So Jose allowed the sale. Your reading far to much into this. If Jose wanted to keep Mata, he would have. The club would not have sold Mata behind his back. If Jose felt Mata was a valuable member of the team, Mata would be staying. There's no of this, you have control over the Ba deal but not this deal bullshit. Jose has control on transfers and thats that.

Jose clearly has control. If Mourinho wanted to keep Mata, he would of.

Do these things usually start later then expected or whats the story?

Yay, the every transfer window Hulk rumour! This thread is soooo 2012

Good decision by Jose if true. The press would be asking him about all sorts today.

Someone who can hug the touchline and play with chalk on their boots is exactly what we need. Gives us a more direct approach. Good impact player, with great potential, for £11m. Thats a good deal for any club to be fair.

We've relied on Mata really on the last few seasons. In a way, we relied on Mata as much as Liverpool did Suarez and Bale to Spurs. Where would we have been last season without Juan Mata? Not in third spot anyway. Probably fifth. Wouldn't have won the Europe League last season either. But Jose comes in and fixes all that. We're a well oiled machine. Jose deserves enormous credit for doing this. We're challenging on all fronts now, Looking like we can win the league, FA Cup and really challenge for the Champions League, which I have no doubt we will be for challenging next season and beyond. Juan has fallen out of favour. Why? He doesn't fit Jose's system. He isn't changing his game to adapt and to be honest he's probably right not too, But unfortunately for us that will mean his departure. I will still love watching Juan, as I do every player who plays the game with such beauty, Its a shame, but Chelsea F.C comes first in this instance, and so does Jose's philosophy. £35-40m pounds for a player who sits on our bench week in, week out? For Jose, who must have his mind made up that Mata won't fit into his plans, Is a no brainier. Will I miss Mata? Yes, of course I will. Does it feel good to have Jose back, Calling the transfer shots, having some balls and making us a superpower again? Of course I do. Unbeaten against the top teams, and challenging for honours. This is the Chelsea I missed. This is Jose Mourinho's Chelsea, that won back to back titles and was robbed of a Champions League, when Juan Mata was merely a kid. The name of the front is more important then the name on the back. Thanks for the memories Juan, but we were Chelsea before you and we'll be Chelsea after you. In Jose we trust.

Please let us pull the plug, PSG and Monaco, what the fuck are you at! Monaco, Falcao just got injured, You need a new star, sign Juan!

Shouldn't this deal be done by now? Moyes sturrring over the line with another transfer. What an amateur
